Hand Dyed Coil Bowl

I know it has been a while since I submitted anything.  That doesn't mean I haven't been working.  This is one of the last coil bowls I made.  This is actually the second of 2 similar bowls I made, just larger and with some color variation.  I keep on trying to evolve and find my own style for working with rope.  I really like using the hand dyed method.  Not only can you see the texture of the rope which adds interest, but you also can get some great color variation.  I haven't figured out the best method of dying yet - this is my second.  I'm going to keep trying.  I also think that the shapes themselves can be interesting and while I think of some great things in my head, when I actually sit down at the machine, I realize I am limited by the mechanics and shape of the sewing machine itself.  I hope to keep growing and evolving in this medium.

As always, this bowl is available through etsy at elsFiberArts
